April 2015 Newsdumpster

Our 2015 You're Getting To Be a Hobbit With Me Tour of New Zealand has entered its fifth and final, dizzying, week. After completing our stint at the Canterbury Folk Festival, we will flap back across the Pacific to the Blue Meanie, which has been waiting patiently in Albuquerque, NM. From there, we resume our 2015 Further West Tour, which began in January. After more shows and tourism, we arrive home in Vermont late this month.

Speaking of Further West, our new album bearing that title has been and will be available for sale only at our shows until the associated swag is ready to be shipped. This is expected to happen not long after we get home.

At the moment, however, we're still happily in New Zealand, and taking inventory of our experiences in this incredible country. Here are a few lines of that inventory:

Over the past few years, Rebecca has been approached by an endless succession of aspiring musicians seeking information on how to advance some aspect of their musical careers. She's helped when she could, but is usually too busy to help in a big way. Rebecca has, therefore, begun offering private coaching on all practical aspects of booking shows, touring and career management in the US and internationally. She's also happy to help with concerns about songwriting, singing, harmonizing and home recording. It's US$50 for each 30-minute session by Skype, telephone or instant messaging. If you or someone you love may be interested, please send a message to rebecca@hungrytown.net.
